[Official] Fallout New Vegas

It's only the amount of save slots you can have. You can overwrite as many times as you want.

Yeah, do you really need 100 save slots? I personally play through games most of the time using a single save slot. At most I use 5-10 slots so I can go back and visit something cool I thought I might like to see again. Why would you need 100 save slots? Only your latest save is going to have your newest gear and what not...

The Xbox360 version only allows me 100 saves at the moment (I'm sure a patch could fix). However, you can use a USB thumb drive, and then you have 100 saves there, and another thumb drive for an additional 100 drives. I don't use that many saves, but it is an easy way to get additional saves, not to mention a great way to back up some of your saves as well. Just a thought.

here is what I'm seeing on my xbox..

I checked my HD and I still have 3.9 gb left

Go delete or overwrite some, I would save like crazy on Fallout 3 and ended up with god knows how many, and then I deleted them all and realised I never actually used any of them.

So now I keep around 4 saves, one before I go in somewhere, say a vault or other quest line, and a second one for progress during it and a second in case of corruption sometimes, and then generally one or two other saves for important things I might want to come back to.

Deathclaw Promintory :cry:

The corpses it speaks of yield:

Remnant Power Armour - best power armour in the game. It also has the T51b power armour - second best power armour in the game, a tri-laser rifle and a multipas rifle.

The remnant helmet is in the Ruby Hill Mine (where I killed the Legendary Cazador)

Oh and I found this armour elsewhere:

Got this game recently, the graphics are slightly disappointing (i'm playing on ultra settings and it's not the best looking game ever), but the gameplay is fun. I just wish Bethesda/whatever company made this was better at gun controls, this game keeping the RPG element, but having the precise and unique gun controls of say Call of Duty or Halo (or even Borderlands) would be epic.

I just wish Bethesda/whatever company made this was better at gun controls, this game keeping the RPG element, but having the precise and unique gun controls of say Call of Duty or Halo (or even Borderlands) would be epic.

The problem is that would take a bit of the RPG element out, if all guns were as precise as CoD/Halo. Gun skills are a part of this game, if you never pick them up while leveling your character is going to suck with guns. If you max them out as early as possible your character is going to be MUCH more effective. One thing I hate though is the complete lack of automatic weaponry. It seems that most weapons are single-shot or at the very least have a long pause time between shots (except for a few, obviously). Even the automatics though just don't feel like automatics....I want something that I can pull out at close range and just blast the hell out of something that made it to me. Often times I find myself jumping into VATS to take care of close-range enemies due to the lack of close range automatic stopping power.

Indeed, as Nagisan pointed out, if guns worked as well as a Call of Duty then a lot of the stats referring to weapons/VATS etc. would become pointless.

It's a lame excuse, but it is on purpose mostly to hinder so that it is something that has to be worked on as part of the RPG element of the game series so far, though the engine used really doesn't help the situation either.

Maybe in future Fallouts if they take the Guns and like stats out they can create a more CoD like shooting system, or maybe some other way to approach it.

The one thing I like about Fallout, is the fact if you are not happy with the way things have gone just go back and do it again, I have got further ahead of this leval although, I went back and made a few changes, for the better really, I am now idolised :) I made changes to their plotted destination and got them 12.5% closer to their target. I didn't bother the first time around so I made the changes so I thought I would take a nice snapshot of their blast off.

It's probably just done it in the background - you don't get any real notification, except for maybe a tiny popup in the corner which you may miss.

    • My wish list is: A trailer for Final Fantasy VII part 3 and a proper look at Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet. Not happening, but I'd kill for would be another game of any genre in the Frostpunk world and another game in the Detroit: Become Human world.
    • I tried Wino-Mail and had the same issue with it that I have with New Outlook: My two centurylink.net email accounts (one of which is my primary email account) refuse to work with either one, and sometimes refuse to even log in, even though ALL the relevant information is accurate. Thunderbird does not have this problem, so I'll stick with what works, thank you.
    • For me it has everything feature wise that I want. But boy the app sucks big time. This and Teams. Ever since they made the transition to WebView it has been slow AF. I mostly use both apps in the browser now because of too much memory being used by these 2 apps. Hoping that native versions are being worked upon.
    • Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11 by Taras Buria The May 2026 Steam Hardware & Software Survey results are now available on the official Steam website, showing Windows 11's continuous growth among the gaming audience. As of early June 2026, nearly 70% of all participants reported having a Windows 11-powered PC, while Windows 10's market share is steadily declining. According to Valve, in May 2026, Windows 11 increased its market share to 69.76% (+2.02 points), while Windows 10 dropped to 23.99% (-1.64 points). 64-bit Windows 7 is still showing up in Valve's reports, and apparently, about 0.07% of all survey participants still use the 17-year-old operating system. Valve no longer updates its client for Windows 7, but it still can access the platform, so the Windows 7 holdouts can stay away from newer Windows versions. Overall, 93.85% of all users run Windows (+0.38 points), while Linux is second with 3.99% (-0.53 points). macOS is third with at 2.16% (+0.15 points). The most popular Linux flavor is Arch Linux (0.35%), while macOS 26.4.1 is currently the dominant macOS release. On the hardware side, the most popular picks include an Intel processor (53.94% against AMD's 46.06%) with six cores (28.02%, -0.6 points), 16 GB of memory (41.14%, -0.28 points), and an NVIDIA graphics card (72.42%, with AMD having 19.13% and Intel 8.05%). The most popular graphics card on Steam is the desktop NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 (3.85%, -0.14 points), while the laptop RTX 4060 is second with 3.77%, and the RTX 3050 is third with 3.10%. The average amount of VRAM is 8GB (25.89%), and the dominant display resolution is the classic 1920x1080 pixels (51.89%, -0.32 points). As usual, you can find more details from the latest survey on the official website. The results for April 2026 are available here.
